in september of 2004 this attorney put a freeze on my checking account, i contacted the attorney's office to find out how much i owed, it was almost 4,000 dollars.

i was intimidated and afraid so i started paying the attorney. first it was 500.00 dollars to take the freeze off of my account, after that i would send what i wanted every month. this attorney was collecting this money for a company called colorado investment capital located in hurst, texas.

colorado capital investment bought the account from providian bank, everytime i would call colorado investment capital to find out information about this account, i was told to speak to the attorney's office. i called the attorney's office, and spoke with a person by the name of mr. barrios, he was rude, and threatening to me, so i hung up on him.

i continued to send my monthly payments. i filed my income tax in january,2006, i called allen rosenthal's office, because i wanted to pay off the balance i owed, when i called his number a recording came on saying that his number was disconnected.

i called information to see if he had changed his number, but to no success. i than stopped sending him payments because i did not know what happened to his office. low and behold on april 24, 2006, i went to the atm machine to withdraw some money, to find out allen rosenthal put a freeze on both of my checking accounts, without any notice from his office in 31/2 months, no forwarding address, no summonse, no phone call.

i than went to civil court, and filed a order to show cause, that stopped allen rosenthal from accessing my checking account, until we went to court. after i filed the order to show cause, i started getting phone calls from mr. barrios to call him back, saying to me that we did not have to go to court, i did not return his call.

i was than sent an income execution to garnish my salary, now remember all of this happened before my appearance in civil court, but i did not respond to allen rosenthal's cronies.

i appeared in civil court on may 15, 2006, of course allen rosenthal did not appear, he send his partner ira sitzer, i quess he was suppose to intimidate me. mr. sitzer started telling the judge he should not approve my order of show cause, but the judge did. sitzer was asking the judge for me to give 1,200 dollars, i told the judge i could not afford it that day, because i had my rent to pay, and that would not leave me any money to pay the rest of my bills, since allen rosenthal had a freeze on my account since april 24, 2006, the judge agreeded with me.

the stipulation of settlement is for me to pay 200.00 dollars, monthly until the balance is paid in full, the judge ask me did i agree with the agreement i said that i did, the balance on the account was 2,100 dollars. mr. sitzer did not like the terms of the agreement, but he had no choice but to accept it.

i also filed an complaint with the american bar association against this law firm who's code of professional responsibility is reprehensible.

none of us as consumers have to tolerant the behaviour of unsrupulous, greedy lawyers,or collection agencies, we have rights, and should be able to exercise them.
